well knocked of the spot welds for the rear and set the axle under the frame instead of on top. made beefer mount pads out of a piece of extra 2.5x2.5 tubing.. Got my wire wheelsyesterday (Will post pics later on today.) got the pieces cut for the steering box mount . will put this on today along with the break pedal and make a floor board for the driver postion.....my next place will have a garage or a horse barn losing a lot of time here just doing this on weekends coming along but would be nice to work in the evening a bit here and there got a dragster type gas pedal off ebay. will have to get a speedboat cable or something like that bout 7' long to reach the carb hookup

ok waiting for front tires,but got the rims just there for ride heightstill on stands got the break pedal welded in place and the steering box bracket mounted, now need to drill hole in box for drag link. and mount the radius rods. body snatcher less engine
